"Analogical reasoning"?

As source-code is digital by nature, how would you apply analogical
reasoning to it? Over a cup of tea with scones? 

Or do you mean you will ONLY do research on the kind of source-code,
that is BASED on analogical reasoning?

Is there source-code around, that is NOT at least based on analogical
reasoning? 

Perhaps there is source-code around, that is so stupid, that it cannot
reasonably be felt to be based on any reasoning, analog or otherwize, but
I would strongly suggest not to re-use such code. 

Did you perhaps mean "analytical reasoning"?

[ "Analytical reasoning is logic that is inferred through the virtue of
the statement's own content", whatever that means. ;-) ]

Well, that that is not up to you as it would need action from the side of
the responder, and a kind NSA, wouldn't it? 

You can only declare your intentions, which we then must take on
face-value: 

"Your responses to this survey will be kept completely confidential and
anonymous."
